Sorry to not have responded sooner … it was indeed a most wonderful trip and we really appreciated all the pre-planning and organization provided by Borello Travel.

The Singular properties were outstanding … the total experience in Patagonia was most outstanding !! The hotel, staff, food and excursions were top notch. We also really enjoyed the Santiago Singular … the spa treatments were excellent.

Chiloe was beautiful and we wished that we could have stayed longer !! The Tierra was beautiful and peaceful. The all day boat excursion was outstanding. You were right about this place !!!

We also enjoyed all the other destinations … all the travel arrangements were well timed and made our travel easy. I feel confident saying that your interest in making our trip a wonderful experience was quite evident. Thank you very much.

I would also like to pay a compliment to Ms Anita for her very courteous and thorough attention. Anita was always so helpful and very professional. Please advise her of my most sincere appreciation and my compliments of her attitude and attention to our needs.

Thank you so much for planning our wonderful trip to Argentina. We had a
great time. Everything worked smoothly, from the flights to the hotels to
the tour guides. We were pleased with all the arrangements and we were
treated extremely well by everyone.
We loved Argentina and Maria is already making plans to go back. Thank you
for being so helpful.

Our trip to Peru was outstanding. Every detail was a pleasure. Many thanks for the choice of hotels. I'm hard pressed to say which one I liked the most. The advice on adjusting to the altitude worked so well that we barely felt it. Of course, Machu Picchu was the highlight but I have to say I enjoyed each and every place we visited. I was expecting a good deal of rain, and It was sunny everyday. Machu Picchu really shines in the sunlight.

When our flight from Cuzco to Lima was canceled, the representative made sure we were on the last flight out. What more can I stay than that your efforts are very much appreciated.

We're back, unpacked, done endless loads of laundry, and are still digesting our wonderful trip. Thank you all for everything you helped us experience. Argentina and Chile are beautiful and fascinating countries. I've already referred you to a friend, Dr Elise

Just thought you might like to know we are having a wonderful time. The flight went well from the moment we entered the airport - greeted by someone who was concerned about the leg room for Jerry - thank you. The Esplendor is fine, a great location and vet helpful staff. We did a little Tango tonight with fun results. Bejeweled with lovely earing and necklace from a local artists while Jerry is styling in new shoes - we are loving Buenos Aires. I'll keep you posted from time to time. Looking forward to Calafate. Thanks for a wonderful itinerary. Mary & Jerry
P.S. just back from Tango - fun!!!

We really enjoyed the visit to San Antonio de Areco and La Bamba. It was one of the highlights of the trip, La Bamba is an incredible estate- the elegant architecture, the best food, incredible birds, beautiful trees- the horse whisperer’s show was surreally tender...

The trip to Chile was really wonderful! We really appreciated all your work! The Singular and Tierra Chiloe properties really stood out as exceptional! I'm still trying to get myself together getting back from the trip. I will write a more extensive review shortly.
Thank you and everyone at Borrello Travel for all your time and effort. Great trip!
Thank you,

We really enjoyed the visit to San Antonio de Areco and La Bamba. It was one of the highlights of the trip, La Bamba is an incredible estate- the elegant architecture, the best food, incredible birds, beautiful trees- the horse whisperer’s show was surreally tender...there was 3 Americans women who came to La Bamba after a week of cycling all wanted to marry the gaucho...
We loved La Bamba-
Thank you for your help with this trip. Unfortunately, we borrowed a camera from a friend but we did not know how to use it properly so we dont have much pictures at all.

Cheers,

"We booked an amazing Argentinian/Patagonian adventure with Borello. They took care of all the details and we just enjoyed the ride! Our guides were so kind and knowledgeable and made us feel at home. All the hotels were wonderful and we were picked up and dropped off on queue. We all felt like we had a trip of a lifetime! We had one problem at the end of the trip and Sandra Borello called me herself to take care of our issue. We would highly recommend Borello if you are travelling to South America! Thank you!

Jayne H- Feb 2016
Thank you so much for sending me and my family to fabulous destinations throughout latin America during the past 10 years. You know exactly what we like. Accommodations, transportation and service always excellent. This last trip to the Ecuadorian Amazon was really amazing!!!! Thank you Borello Travel Looking forward to the next adventure.

Jill and I had a great time on our recent trip to Patagonia. Your recommendations on travel arrangements and excursions were pretty much “spot on”. Daniel C. 24th Jan 2016
We are back from our trip to Argentina and Brazil and we had an amazing time. I am so grateful to you and your team for putting it together for us. Our hotels were wonderful, fun to stay at with great service and so well located. Our guides at all four of the locations we visited were excellent and extremely knowledgeable. Our trip was very diverse starting in Buenos Aires, going on to the Pampas, then to Iguazu Falls and finally to Rio. We danced tango, rode horses, ate terrific food and got soaked at Iguazu Falls. We also were able to engage in some wonderful shopping therapy in Buenos Aires as the leather goods were fantastic. We loved every part of the trip. I doubt we could have put all the pieces together the way that you and your team did, the timing was perfect. We will always treasure our memories of this trip. Thank you again for making complicated planning for a busy trip so easy. We are looking forward to working with you again on another South American trip.

I just wanted to say you a quick THANK YOU for all of our bookings on our recent trip to Argentina.
Argentina has been blessed with tremendous natural beauty and we truly enjoyed our visit. We especially enjoyed the Casco Art Hotel in Bariloche and the Hub Portenio in Buenos Aires, both were great choices.
Thanks again and have a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous 2015. Cheers!

Gil B--- 26 JAN 2015
I went to Argentina through your agency in December with my friends Janet and Yasuko, and we had a wonderful trip. Your country is very interesting, very rich culturally, especially in terms of arts. We particularly enjoyed the museums, landmarks, street life and performing arts,…and the people were very nice everywhere. The landscapes were spectacular, especially in Iguazú and in the North West of the country, with all the mountain formations and colors. We enjoyed Salta and Cafayate…The logistics went very smoothly with transportation, transfers and hotel stays. We were particularly grateful to meet our tour guides were respectively very warm, resourceful, open-minded, and always willing to fulfill our expectations... They made a BIG difference in the quality of our trip,... Diana, the hospitality manager at La Estancia was also excellent… so we felt like "gaucho princesses" there! So, thank you again, and I wish everybody a fruitful 2015 year.

Isabelle--- 17 JUN 2015
"We had an incredible trip that included Buenos Aires, a boat trip throughout Patagonia, and Santiago. We booked part of our trip on our own and Borello helped with parts of it. They were responsive to our requests and remained flexible given the trip structure. We hope to work with Borello again!"
Laura-Min--- Jan 2, 2015

I just wanted to thank you for planning a great trip for us. Everything went off without a hitch- all our airport pick ups were waiting for us, everyone was on time, the tour guides were terrific and the cruise of Patagonia was breath taking. We could not have had a better time. Thank you for all your hard work on our behalf.
Robin --- Jan 6, 2015
Thank you for your assistance in booking our cruise from Ushuaia and our time in El Calafate.
Service was wonderful and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Anne---OCT 27, 2014
This is our second trip to Chile and Argentina arranged by Sandra Borello and her team. Sandra, Anita, and Diego treated the details of our itineraries with meticulous attention to hotel selection and activity preferences. As we developed our plans changes were effected to meet our concerns. Highlights were the llama trekking, crossing the Andes through the Jama Pass, hiking and horseback riding.

On our previous trip we enjoyed hiking in Torres del Paine and the Australis crossing of the Straits of Magellan. Very special.

It is a pleasure to work with a knowledgable and competent team

Lori - August 29, 2014
"I think the team did an amazing job understanding our interests and translating it into a diverse itinerary of activities. The pace, tours, and experiences were excellent. Outside of the change in location for La Tupina, the entire itinerary was flawlessly executed. No one was late, every guide was kind and helpful, and at all times everyone was extremely professional. We loved Marcella in Iguazu Falls. She was awesome." "We had an amazing time. It was a vacation of a lifetime. It's a gorgeous country you are lucky to call home. We hope to work with you again on another destination."

A big thank you to the team. Gen 28 May 2014
"trip was fantastico!!! We loved the hotel Entre Cielos in Mendoza and the Hub Porteño in BA is one of the finest boutique hotels we have ever visited. The staff in both were gracious and at our beck and call. Louis in BA was great and Vincent and Manuel in Mendoza were terrific." "Your arrangement oif flights and hotels was just perfect for our first trip to Argentina. We will definitely be using your agency again and recommending it to our friends and colleagues. Pam and I want to spend three months in BA to learn Spanish. We will be in touch with you soon to discuss your thoughts." " I would give Borello an A+"

Tom & Pam, May 23, 2014
Much time has passed but the trip remains a wonderful respite filled with interesting hiking. For me, being able to sleep on the place from NYC to Santiago was probably my best memory. I was so very tired. Probably not something to share as it is a personal experience.

I do hope to work with you again on a return trip to South America.

Kind regards,

Lori Apr 3, 2014

Just to let you know that we had a very good time with the trip you organize for my family and myself to Patagonia.

looking forward for another trip in the future.

b regards,

Alfredo March 17, 2014
My sons and I enjoyed the trip very much. I am grateful to Anita and you, Diego and the agency Borello for organizing a fine trip for us and we will recommend it to our friends. My sons are planning a same trip in the near future.

Once again thank you very much for offering a great service.

Sincerely,

Anastas and sons.-- 23 Jan 2014
Hi, Sandra. We just got back from South America on Saturday, and had an outstanding time! Thank you so much for all of your help in making the trip a reality. Diego, Florencia, Anita and the rest of your staff were always helpful and professional, and it was a pleasure working with them. We can, and will, recommend Borello Travel to anyone planning a South America trip.

Best,
Jay and Shelley --14 Jan 2014
I just want to thank you for arranging such a wonderful trip. We had an absolutely AMAZING time!!! For me, it was a trip of a lifetime. What a breathtaking landscape in Patagonia, and we only experienced the tip of the iceberg! The transfers and guides made traveling far less stressful, especially when you don't speak the language. Each guide was fabulous and brought their own color into the tours. You made wonderful suggestions relative to our interests and tastes. Each hotel was lovely and with such attention to detail! However, words can’t adequately describe The Singular. One must truly "experience" the place. I highly doubt that I will ever stay anywhere that compares to The Singular.

Thank you again for your dedicated efforts in assisting with this trip.

Janice R. - 9 mar 2013
I cannot tell you how wonderful the trip was or how grateful I am to you. I’ve never been involved in a more elegant, perfect situation – it was absolutely brilliant. If you ever need a testimonial about its perfection, call upon me. The very best trip ever. The hotel in Buenos Aires was also exceptional, very beautiful, great location. Thanks for everything to you and Anita and Felicia for making this so delightful. Your devoted fan,

Libby S. - 19 Feb 2013
Just a note to tell you everything worked out exactly as planned and I thank you for it. The hotel in Patagonia was extraordinary!

Yours sincerely,

Samuel G. -1 Feb 2013

I wanted to let you know that my husband and I had a wonderful time during our honeymoon. We loved all of the excursions and hotels. The little extras that you arranged were very special! Our guides - Alex in Buenos Aires and Leticia in Mendoza - were extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Our vacation was stress-free due to all of your help and planning.

Thanks again for everything. Looking forward to referring you to our friends/familyand working with you again in the near future.

Best regards,

Amy M. 25 JAN 2013
I just wanted to send a note to say thank you for all of your help in planning this trip. It was unbelievable!!! Everything was amazingJ We really appreciated all of the special “birthday” touches… very kind. Not only did we get to celebrate Mike’s birthday, but we were also able to celebrate our engagement!

Thank you again!

Lindsay and Mike , Jan 7, 2013

I just wanted to say thank you again for your help in putting together some of the pieces of our trip to Argentina. After twenty years, our return and reunion was fantastic! We were happy to see that the country overall, including the domestic airline, are functioning more smoothly than ever. It is a wonderful country with wonderful people and we all had a wonderful time.

Gracias por todo,

Alison G. R., January 3, 2012
Kate and I just returned from our trip to Argentina. We had a great time and part of that reason was because we were exceptionally pleased with the service that your firm provided. We will be giving your company rave reviews on Trip Advisor.
All of the people who picked us up at the airport, delivered us to the airport or to the bus station were all on time, waiting for us at the terminal. They were all courteous, cheerful and very helpful. They really helped make our trip a success with no stress.
We were also very impressed with our tour guides. Danila in Salta was excellent. She is very knowledgeable about her city and the surrounding area and well versed in Argentina's history. She spoke excellent English and was a pleasure to talk to...
In Mendoza Carla was our guiding light...
Thank you for making our trip a huge success.

Sybille & Kate, Jan 29, 2013

We would definitely recommend Borello Travel. In fact a friend is planning a trip and may be contacting you shortly. His name is John Roberts.

Thanks again for your help and hopefully you can help us plan another trip soon.

Donna --April 04, 2012

We had a fabulous trip to Argentina. Everything was great...we were met and picked up and everyone was friendly and on time. The hotels were great...both places. A highlight was the tour in Bariloche with Luciano really spectacular and it was so great we used him the next day and hiked to the trompedor glacier. Thanks for all your work!!!
